Total: 5.00 | 115.00 Under
Result: Win
Both Tampa Bay and Columbus rank in the top six in goals scored. The Blue Jackets are averaging 3.1 goals in their last eight games, while the Lightning have allowed 14 goals during their past four games.
The teams just met this past Friday and Columbus won, 5-3.
The Blue Jackets have better offensive depth this season and Tampa Bay is missing steady Anton Stralman, who has been out the past eight games suffering from an upper body injury. Without Stralman, the Lightning lack a No. 2 defenseman and their depth suffers.
Ben Bishop is slated to get the start in goal for Tampa Bay. Bishop is the bigger name, but I think backup goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy has been more effective. He's 6-1 with a 1.50 GAA.
